slashcode-general

Hi All,
Having a bit of trouble getting slash installed and running. Here's the error:
/usr/local/slash/bin Root > ./install-slashsite -u slash
You did not supply a valid DBIx::Password virtual name.
I've tried remaking DBIx::Password a few different times with different names and passwords and such, but I keep getting the same error.
Not sure where to start on tracking this one down.
Thanks!

OK how about trying something else - lets confirm that DBIx::Password is
fully installed.
as a user other than root try
perldoc DBIx::Password
and if that works (displays some docs) then try looking at the file itself with
perldoc -m DBIx::Password
This should show you something like
package DBIx::Password;
use strict;
use DBI();
@DBIx::Password::ISA = qw ( DBI::db );
($DBIx::Password::VERSION) = ' $Revision: 1.7 $ ' =~ /\$Revision:\s+([^\s]+)/;
my $virtual1 = {
'going2' => {
'driver' => 'mysql',
'username' => 'going2',
'attributes' => {},
'port' => '',
'database' => 'slashdb2',
'password' => 'removedforobviousreasons',
'host' => 'localhost',
'connect' =>
'DBI:mysql:database=slashdb2;host=localhost'
}
,
etc etc etc

The file itself. You don't *have* to follow the instructions for creating
the DBIx::Password. Last time I looked it assumed that you were only going
to have one slash site on the box. (I have three).
You may have to edit this DBIx::Password file by hand. And for that you
need a smattering of perl.
